Man aCharged In Year-old Fort Frances Murder

A 26-year-old Seine River First Nation man has been arrested on a charge of second degree murder in the connection with last year's death of 45-year-old Leo Whitecrow.

The charge against Peter Deafy comes more than a year after Whitecrow's body was discovered inside a room at the Mid-Town Motel in Fort Frances

OPP Sergeant Shelly Garr won't say why it took so long, but it's not unusual.

The cause of Whitecrow's death has not yet revealed.
